Answer:

x = 7 m and x = −7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Its a modulus problem

concept

|x|  = x when x>=0

|x| = -x when x < 0

____________________________________

Now given

|x| − 2 = 5

adding 2 both sides

|x| − 2  + 2 = 5 + 2

|x|  = 7

now

x = 7  when x >= 0

x = -7 when x<0

Thus, correct answer is x = 7 m and x = −7 m

I + 6 = r

4r = s

i + r + s = 126

4i + 24 = 4r

s= 4r

i = r-6

4i+24=i+6
-3i=18

i = 6

Find the distance between the points with the given coordinates (-8,-6),(4,10)​
Serggg [28]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

20

Discussion:

Let (x1,y1) = (-8, -6) and (x2,y2) = (4,10). Per the distance formula,

Distance = sqrt (  (x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2 )  so

Distance = sqrt (  (-8-4)^2 + (-6-10)^2 )

                = sqrt( (12)^2 + (-16)^2 )

                = sqrt( 144     + 256 )

                = sqrt(400)

                = 20

Thank you,

MrB

Frank invests $1,000 in simple interest investment account that pays 8% a year. After a number of years, he withdraws his balanc
elena-s [515]

Answer:

15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P=$1,000

R=8%

A= $2200

I= A-P

I=2200-1000

I=$1200

Applying the formula

I=PRT/100

1200=1000*8*T/100

cross multiply

1200*100= 8000T

120000= 8000T

divide both sides by 8000

T=120000/8000

T=15  years

Hence the time is 15 years
